Bug Description
Record a video, then select "save for later", and enter UTF-8 character in the destination file name. The following exception is raised (specifically with "é" that appears with the french local "Capture vidéo 2014-06-16 23:38:09.avi") :
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/lib/
shutil.
File "/usr/lib/
if os.path.isdir(dst):
File "/usr/lib/
st = os.stat(s)
UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode character '\xe9' in position 35: ordinal not in range(128)

Kazam 1.4.4-1 in Ubuntu 14.04 works fine and doesn't crash when I choose "save for later" and enter UTF-8 characters in the destination file name. I've entered these characters as file name:
Capture vidéo ąčęėįšųūž ĄČĘĖĮŠŲŪ„“Ž 2014-06-16 23:38:09.mp4
Francis, which Kazam and operating system version do you use?
I can't reproduce reported issue :)
